The black bat wings were folded, and the sharp blades like knives reflected a cold blue light under the light. It was beautiful and exquisite, but also exuded a terrifying danger.
The host, who has grown into a young man, stands on the black flames. Compared to his youthful appearance, Ya Xiao is now more sexy. His black wings set off his fair skin, which is as delicate as a piece of fine white jade. Just standing there, he is so bewitching that people cannot take their eyes away.
[Great, host!!!]
The system had been watching over Yaxiao nervously, not even daring to doze off from the beginning to the end. From the time the host drew the magic circle to the time the bat wings grew, the nearly five hours of waiting finally paid off at this moment. It excitedly said to the host:
[Congratulations to the host!]
"Um."
Yaxiao's blue eyes curved slightly, and the tail behind him wagged a little. He responded to the system happily, "Thank you, Fourth Uncle."
After he finished speaking, he tilted his head slightly to look at the wings that had grown on him. He raised his hand curiously and touched them. The huge black wings trembled slightly and opened. A faint blue light flashed across the wings.
Smooth, soft, and sharp-edged.
As beautiful as my own tail!
Yaxiao immediately fell in love with his wings. They were different from the fancy wings made with the devil experience vouchers. Real devil wings could store magic power, and could be used for defense and attack. They were very powerful!
a!
Yaxiao thought excitedly.
Watching the young man touching his wings from time to time to confirm them, the system was excited, sad and moved.
In order to become a great demon, the host paid a lot. Four hundred years was too long, but now he finally got what he wanted.
Just as the system was about to express its feelings, it heard the young man withdraw his hand with satisfaction and said in a cheerful voice, "Uncle, can you help me simulate a few training subjects? It would be best if they are stronger."
Rather than lamenting the difficulties he had experienced in the past, Yaxiao wanted to know the limits of his strength after becoming a great demon.
The system had been with Yaxiao for hundreds of years, and instantly understood what Yaxiao meant. It was actually very curious about the host's abilities, so it directly responded: [Okay, host, please wait.]
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a ding sound in the virtual space, and then three faceless shadows flickered in the space. After a few seconds, they gradually condensed into entities.
[The strength of these three is equivalent to that of the Demon Lord. ]
The system is not aware of the host's current strength, so it can only refer to Yaxiao's previous strength and raise it by two levels.
When the host was still a mid-level demon, he could barely escape from a demon lord.
[Host, please be careful.]
The system estimated that if the host wanted to test the limits of his abilities, these three demon lord-level beings should be enough.
If he cannot defeat them, with the host's current abilities, he should be able to escape from their attack unscathed.
Looking at the eager host in front of it, the system paused for a moment. Just as it was about to remind Yaxiao to be careful again, after all, this was not a simple game, the next second, it heard the host's smiling voice.
[let's start.]
Almost in the blink of an eye, three phantoms appeared beside the young man, and the one with the most agility was about to stab the sharp razor in his hand into Yaxiao's neck.
The system's heart skipped a beat, [Host, be careful! ]
Looking at the sharp blade pressing against his throat, the young man remained calm. He flapped his dark wings slightly, and the three besieging figures seemed to be caught in a storm and were instantly bounced away.
The area of virtual space is very large.
The three shadows were bounced far away, and their bodies hit the wall of the space heavily, making a thud.
The system got stuck for a moment, and he swallowed his previous worries. It didn't seem to be difficult to deal with these three demon lords
The specially simulated virtual light and shadow could not feel pain and had a variety of abilities. After analyzing that the opponent was very good at close combat, the three intelligent light and shadow quickly changed their strategy and used long-range attacks.
However, before he could perform any moves, the system saw the host snap his fingers, and the next second, the three light shadows shattered like fireworks, and the black sparks disappeared into the air.
The young man squeezed his hands, as if he hadn’t warmed up yet, “Fourth Uncle, they are so weak.”
system:…
Well, it can be seen that the host is not even willing to waste more time with them.
The demon lords themselves are close to being archdemons.
Compared with other demons, the great demon is a different kind of existence. Their lives are qualitatively different. Even the virtual space of the system cannot replicate such lives. It can only choose a demon lord who is infinitely close to the great demon.
Judging from the scene just now, the gap between them is still like an insurmountable chasm and cannot be compared at all. Considering that the host has the blood of a king-level demon in his body, it seems natural to kill these demon lords in seconds.
The system records this conclusion in the database.
[Then I will arrange another thirty demon lords for the host. ]
The system tests the limits of Yaxiao's strength step by step.
"OK, all right."
Yaxiao said with his eyes curved.
In order to make the host feel more combative, the system deliberately released these thirty demon lords in batches into the virtual space, with the main focus on surprise. Sure enough, when dealing with these lights and shadows, Yaxiao was no longer as relaxed as before.
Half an hour later, Yaxiao finally had enough fun.
He snapped his fingers, and the light image equivalent to the strength of thirty demon lords dissipated with a bang as before.
[Host, do you want to continue? ]
The system was drinking tea comfortably. After seeing that the training subjects also disappeared, it asked kindly.
Yaxiao was somewhat tempted, but immediately shook his head and said, "No need."
The strongest training target arranged by Fourth Uncle is only Light and Shadow at the level of Demon Lord. Although he can fight with him by walking volume, Yaxiao still hopes to compete with a truly powerful opponent.
"I'm going back to my room."
Yaxiao wanted to fight the insect queen as soon as possible, which meant he had to go to the front line instead of staying in the fortress.
[OK.]
The system simulated a light gate, and the host could walk directly into the room.
Yaxiao did not move immediately, but retracted his wings first.
The huge black wings stretched out in the air, then slowly folded in, becoming smaller and smaller, and finally left two black patterns on the shoulder blades, like a tattoo engraved on the skin.
After becoming a high-level demon, Yasho gained innate memories that allowed him to easily control his body and abilities.
At the same time, his appearance changed from that of a young man to that of a teenager.
High-level demons can change their forms freely.
Yaxiao doesn't really care about his appearance, but it's impossible for humans to grow several years older overnight, so it's more convenient to keep his previous appearance.
After everything was restored to normal, Yaxiao returned to his room. At this time, six hours had passed since Qin Qi left the fortress.
Qin Qi should have arrived at the front line.
Thinking of this, Yaxiao sent a message to Qin Qi, asking about his current situation.
After noticing that the host had come out of the virtual space, the system sent a message to Qin Qi. Looking at the smile on Yaxiao's face as he stared at the light brain, the system fell into silence.
The host really likes Qin Qi.
[Host…]
The system couldn't help but hesitate and speak. When Yaxiao looked up, it said tactfully: [You have now become a high-level demon, and your strength should be similar to Qin Qi. ]
But no matter how many backup plans Qin Qi has, he probably won't be able to defeat the host.
The system felt like it had been scratched by a cat and was extremely curious. It knew that Qin Qi liked the host, but the hosts were different. Even the system could not see through the devil's definition of liking.
Does the host like Qin Qi the same way, or is it simply admiration for him because of his powerful strength
If it is pure worship, then the attitude should have changed? But now it seems that there is no change.
The system observed Yaxiao, being careful not to reveal its own inclinations in order not to affect the other party.
Yaxiao didn't know what the system was thinking, but he could tell that his fourth uncle was asking about his opinion of Qin Qi. He kept nodding as he replied to Qin Qi on the light brain, "Yes, so I will have a fight with Qin Qi one day!"
Yaxiao's blue eyes sparkled, and he was obviously looking forward to it very much.
system:…
Well, this straightforward answer is very much like the host’s style. It’s hard to see through, it’s impossible to see through at all.
At the same time, Qin Qi also received the message from Yaxiao. He typed a few words "arrived at the front line" and looked at Yaxiao's avatar on the computer with a slightly deep look in his eyes.
"Marshal, after the garrison encountered an insect swarm, it has now moved to the northeast corner. We need to move forward another five kilometers." Soran knocked on the door and walked in to report.
The front-line garrison is not within the barrier range and is extremely dangerous. The position must be changed every few days to prevent invasion by demon insects.
"Yes." Qin Qi turned off his optical computer and said calmly, "Calculate the energy of the airship. Before reaching the base, try to eliminate the surrounding demon insects as much as possible."
"yes!"
Soran replied immediately.
After the adjutant left, Qin Qi's eyelashes drooped slightly. He took out a notebook from the drawer, turned to the last topographic map, and circled the location of the original garrison.
This topographic map is confusing.
Not counting what he had just drawn, there were already dozens of circles on it. Qin Qi drew a few strokes on the paper with the tip of his pen, and then put the notebook back into the drawer.
It’s almost there, we’ll find the insect queen soon.
The look in Qin Qi's eyes was a little obscure.
Qin Qi on the front line is trying to find the insect mother, while Ya Xiao on the other side is also thinking about how to get to the front line.
Although Qin Qi asked him to stay in the fortress, it would be impossible for him to find the insect mother if he stayed there. He had to find a suitable reason to go to the front line.
[The host can pass through using the crow step form. ]
The system helped Yaxiao come up with ideas.
Yaxiao thought about it, then shook his head, "No, if I get lost in the fortress, Qin Qi will be worried."
Yaxiao knew the gentleness beneath Qin Qi's cold attitude.
He didn't want to make Qin Qi worry, and Yaxiao didn't quite understand the reason.
Seeing that the host took Qin Qi into consideration as a matter of course, the system really wanted to remind the host that now that the demon value has been collected, there is no need to consider Qin Qi anymore.
But after thinking about it, the system didn't say this sentence in the end.
After thinking hard for a while, neither Yaxiao nor the system could come up with a reasonable reason.
"You can always think of it." The system comforted Yaxiao.
Yaxiao was not someone who would be easily discouraged. He asked his fourth uncle to go and rest first. He lay on the bed and closed his eyes, but he was still thinking about what excuse he could come up with.
After a day of fruitless thinking, there was finally a turning point on the second day.
Every day, the front line transports a number of out-of-control taboos and the wounded back to the fortress for treatment.
Yaxiao didn't need to serve his employer for the time being, so in order to kill time, he followed other stewards in the fortress to the medical station to provide simple treatment for the injured officers.
It was at this time that Yaxiao learned that the medical station would send volunteers to the front line from time to time.
“What are the criteria for volunteers?”
Yaxiao turned his head slightly to look at Matt, the butler with whom he had a good relationship.
Matt had been in the fortress for quite some time and was very familiar with it. He thought Yaxiao was just curious, so he answered casually, "They have some self-protection and treatment skills, but they mainly help frontline medical personnel bring the wounded back to the fortress. After all, the frontline is too dangerous, and most volunteers will not stay there forever."
"This has nothing to do with us."
Matt said, shrugging his shoulders, putting the bandage down, then looked at Yaxiao and said, "Are you coming over tomorrow? We can come together."
"No."
Yaxiao shook his head and said tactfully: "I have something to do tomorrow."
Insect swarms have become more frequent recently.
Small insect swarms that used to break out once a month now occur almost once a week. This is not only happening near the Sixth Base, but also in all the border bases.
It has been nearly a week since Qin Qi arrived at the garrison, and a lot of information about the insect tide has been collected.
"The eighth base has the most frequencies."
When Westar was communicating with Qin Qi, his expression was a little ugly. Anyone could see that the demon insect must be holding back something big.
Qin Qi rubbed the simulated eyeball in his hand with a calm expression. He just listened without saying anything.
Wistar didn't say much.
It was obvious that this matter should be discussed by the marshals of all human bases. The two of them alone could not decide on the next battle plan.
"Where's Yashao?"
Wista changed the subject and looked at the empty space behind Qin Qi. He couldn't help but reveal to his friend, "Although the master told me not long ago that I could confess my feelings, I was a little scared for the first time when the time came."
After all, he has asked a master to help him. If he fails this time, he may never have a partner in his life. Thinking of the possible problems that may arise later, Westa couldn't help but cover his heart and dared not think about it any further.
"He's at the fort."
Qin Qi ignored Westa's nonsense and just told him where Yaxiao was.
"Indeed, the front line is too dangerous."
Westar nodded in agreement, but soon he noticed that Qin Qi looked down at the computer on the table, as if he had received some news, and his cold and steady expression suddenly changed.
"What's wrong?"
Wistar asked curiously.
Qin Qi's face looked a little gloomy. He stood up and then sat back in his seat. The simulated eyeball in his hand was squeezed hard by his palm, and his heart was surging.
What's going on here
It was the first time that Vista saw Qin Qi like this, and he couldn't help but feel curious.
Qin Qi did not answer Westa.
He stared at the message sent by his adjutant Weicheng on the computer interface, and his mood became increasingly depressed.
Yaxiao is coming
The front line is so dangerous, what is he doing here
